and sold it to Fix-West Coast
two years later. Grauman, how
ever, stayed on as manager and

Gaucho."
No Amount of Money Can Give
U. S. 700 Percent Protection
New York, March 6 VP) No amount of money can give America
100 per cent protection from atomic bombers in event of war,
Defense Secretary Louis Johnson said Friday night in a talk on
me country s armea girengin.
"There is a risk to living in the middle of the 20th century,"
he said. "It is a risk that every
community must take in an
atomic age.
"Some enemy pilot with the
zeal and fanatism of a Kamikaze
might get through our net on a
one-way suicide mission and the
United States might get hurt."
Johnson said that even if the
United States put all its defense
money 13 billions a year into
air defense it would not guaran
tee immunity from atomic at
tack. He added:
'This is what we can and will
do instead
'We can build a strong air
defense.
"We can make enemy raids
costly so costly that he will
find himself unable to continue
his attack.
"We can make retribution so
deadly that he will wish he had
never started."
"But no one," Johnson said,
could honestly guarantee
against the possibility of a sui
cide pilot eluding our air defense,
even if we spent ... 50 billion
dollars."

This Ghost Was Practical
Oakland, Calif., March 6 (U.R) Theghost of Niles Creek
canyon stopped walking and began to run when
policemen fired two shots into the air.
About 20 years ago, a girl mysteriously disappeared In
the East Bay canyon and legend has it that since then, at
midnight of February 27, the ghost of the girl walks through
the canyon.
About 30 citizens, plus deputy sheriff's William Rose and
Ed Pavom were on hand last night at Stonybrook park
trestle when the witching hour arrived. Sure enough, a fig
ure garbed in white strolled down the railroad tracks and
glided out on the trestle.
The deputies, being practical men, fired two shots into the
air.
The ghost, also being practical, ran pellmell to the deputies
and surrendered. Deputies said the ghost was a man, but
refused to reveal his name.
